UNIVERSAL TUBULAR SENSORS
•Small housing of only 40 mm
•Cable output
•No sensitivity adjustment trimmer
•IP69K mechanical protection
The main characteristic of the new M18 tubular S15 sensors is the housing length of only
40 mm, especially suitable for applications with reduced space.
The new S15 series is available with cable output, in order to maximise the concept of
‘reduced dimensions’ as well as to offer contemporaneously the best installation flexibility.
The S15 series is supplied without the sensitivity adjustment trimmer to ease and speed-
up installation. This feature drastically reduces the possibility of allowing the operator to
modify the sensor’s performances and so guaranteeing major reliability and productivity.
The main optic functions used in the industrial market are available, polarised retroreflex,
non-polarised retroreflex, diffuse proximity and through beam.
These sensors are ideal for the most critical applications with harsh environmental
conditions thanks to the IP69K mechanical protection.

The sensor can be fixed by means of
the M18x1 threaded body using
CH.24 nuts (1.5 Nm maximum
tightening torque) or low-profile flared
nut provided specifically supplied for .
Various orientable fixing brackets are
available to ease sensor positioning
(please refer to the accessories listed
in the general catalogue).
The operating distance is measured
from the front surface of the sensor
lens.
C models: the object has to be
moved closer or further away from
the front surface of the sensor lens to
improve detection.
In case of lateral translation, the
object must move as indicated in the
figure.
